Peasant lad Guei has moved to the city and become a bicycle courier, hoping to make his dreams come true. But schoolboy Jian needs a bike to impress his girlfriend and doesn’t think twice about stealing one. A deceptively simple fable about human nature, the award-winning film is a powerful study of pride, jealousy and the corruptive powers of capitalism. It gives the first real insight into a city unseen on film before. Reminiscent of De Sica’s realist classic, Bicycle Thieves. Lyrical, touching and emotionally dramatic. A truly unforgettable experience. DVD EXTRAS scene selection biographies original trailer |
